Oasis

Oasis A rose blooms silent In the middle of desert, Oasis of life. A thought blooms silent In the middle of my head, Oasis of life.

This felt like free-verse to me (and a very good one at that!). The image of a thought being unexpected like a rose blooming in the desert is wonderful. The word "silent" is key... both are beautiful things, but don't make themselves known by shouting... cool poem!

Thank you for commenting. As a matter of facts this initially was not an HaiKu being the syllabic number wrong. Yesterday I modified it to fit the rule 5-7-5, but I am still doubtful about Haiku and syllable counting. Isn't there some rule about contents and about accents? We use HaiKu without knowing it as Japanese do!

You are one of my favourites, Drake, and not only of mine... I like your comment, it is a poem itself
